Abstract

Methods and systems for partitioning data for processing in a plurality of data centers are disclosed. For each of a plurality of data centers, a time period required for the data center to process an amount of information may be estimated. The plurality of data centers may be ordered based on the time period for each data center. Data may be received from one or more sources. A data center having a smallest time period from the ordered plurality of data centers may be selected to be added to a set of data centers. An overall execution time for the set of data centers to process the data may be determined. The selecting and determining operations may be repeated until the overall execution time satisfies one or more threshold criteria. The data may be transmitted to the set of data centers.
